Aliens

They walk among us! They do and I have concrete proof...are you ready?!?!

 

Things that are normal shouldn't glow like that...just saying! Little furry aliens!!!

Anyways, its been cold weather and snow and yuck here lately so I decided it was time for some feel good food. (enter stage left- Chicken Noodle Soup!) Plus I needed a little pick me up, I start physical therapy this week. I know that it will be helpful but it is going to hurt and be a pain in the butt! It is thankfully a good step in my recovery (neurological disorder problems) so that way I can get back to normal! Yay normal!

On to the recipe, my mom used to make this soup and it was always so wonderful! The problem with having a mother that is the best cook in the world is that she cooks without recipes, she just eyeballs it...so in advance I apologize for the lack of measurements below. With that being said the best thing about this recipe is that you can tweak it to how you like it.  There are tons of options that you can use to make this soup your very own, so without further adieu here is the recipe!

Chicken Noodle Soup

Ingredients

1 lb. Boneless skinless chicken breast (trim all the little bits of fat from it also)

3 or 4 large carrots

2-3 stalks of celery

1-2 green onions

1 bag medium or large egg noodles

Chicken bouillon granules OR Chicken broth

a little dash of garlic powder 

a little but of parsley flakes

salt and pepper to taste

So what you want to do is to chop up all of your veggies and put them in your soup pot along with the chicken breast and cover with the water and chicken bouillon or just cover with chicken broth (whichever you prefer I use the granules because I like a lot of chicken flavor in my soup, and let me tell ya, I use way more than I probably should I would guess at least 2 tbsp. for a 5qt. soup pot. You might not want that much because it is salty etc. this is where you can take this recipe into your own hands.)

After your ingredients are covered in (insert liquid of your choosing from before) Add in just a dash of garlic powder and add parsley to taste, then cook at a medium heat stirring occasionally until veggies are tender and chicken is cooked. 

Add in the egg noodles and cook until tender, bowl up and enjoy!
